Anti theft light is on and not blinking,car runs for a second and dies,tried the key trick and it didn't work,any suggestion on how to bypass the anti theft completely by doing the work myself??
Yes, unfortunately this is very common on GM vehicles. Go to this link for everything you need. Rule of thumb is this. If the light is flashing, the problem will be In the ignition or the smart transponder key. If the light is solid, the problem is in the TDM (theft deterrent module). This is the main computer for the theft system. There is a full bypass method on this link listed under PERMANENT FIX. This is what you will need. It will bypass every aspect of the system 100%.

it sounds like the immobilizer is faulty. this will shut off the electrical feed to the starter motor. you will need to take it to a garage to get this fixed.
hope this helps.

I'm going to assume this has the VATS system with the pellet in the key. You need to know the correct resistant of the factory pellet and bypass the system using that value. A quick google search will result in many articles on how to bypass the VATS system, as it's required when installing a remote start system in most late 80s-mid 90s GM vehicles.
